Australia captain Tim Paine has been fined 15 per cent of his match charges for “showing dissent at an umpire’s decision” through the third Test in opposition to India on the Sydney Cricket Ground.
Paine was left livid after DRS assessment overturned Cheteshwar Pujara’s dismissal through the 56th over of India’s innings on day 4 of the third Test when Nathan Lyon was sure that he had the batsman caught at quick leg. On-field upmire Paul Wilson rasied his finger, however DRS confirmed there was no bat concerned as TV umpire Bruce Oxenford discovered no conclusive proof.
Paine threw in an expletive-laden response, a few of which have been picked on stump mic. The act left Paine to have breached rticle 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which pertains to “showing dissent at an umpire’s decision during an International Match.”
Speaking concerning the captain’s frustration, Pat Cummins stated: “I believe with RTS, [Paine’s] frustration might be that you simply simply see there’s fixed wavering and it comes as much as totally different folks to find out whether or not a spike is large enough or muffled.
“[DRS] gets rid of the howlers. As a bowler, it is always hard to take when you see just under half the ball hitting the stumps and it comes up orange lights, but I’ll leave that to the officials to change any rules. It doesn’t bother me too much.”
Paine accepted the sanctions proposed by match referee David Boon.
